PewPewUniversity: a lesson on No Impact Landing (NIL) 

Zadamanim depends on character marth has 3

Xerosyx Oh really? I thought it was 4 for the entire cast. Neat.

yeah, like bowser has 6 frames

In Kadano's video it says the exceptions are Pichu, DK, Ganon, and Bowser. So marth landing lag should be 4.

land at the apex of your jump -.-

+Bomboy I think the way it works is that the character never actually lands, he/she goes from above the platform one frame and below it the next while moving down, so the character becomes grounded without landing

You only land with lag if your character is moving downwards. If you can land while moving upwards, you don't get lag. But how do you land while going upwards? Some animations like that of Falcon's backwards jump make his collision box move up then down, and the downward movement can happen even while the character is moving upwards, and if the game detects that the collision moved downwards, it counts it as landing. You don't see the collision box, but it can be made visible with Dolphin's cheat codes. All you need to do to actually perform a NIL is use the right animation (like backwards jump on Marth and Falcon) in the right place (from below a platform). Samus's up air also works.

the second one is to fast fall

+Link marth only.

+CGcyclone141 It's CRT whine. It's from the TV he's playing melee on. Completely unavoidable, unfortunately.

+theleeryone that's odd because this is one of the only videos I hear it in...

No; More lag. This has less lag than a standard landing animation, which has less lag than a waveland.

HiTechnic very old comment I made haha but thanks!

owlnips Np, I wasn't sure about this at all until I watched this video

Great song, 'Into Black' by Blouse. Hope you're still interested 5 years later lol

Ace shinigami this is acctully not true I might use this on the ledge

+Ace shinigami if you play flaco he has a NIL on battlefield when full jumping to the top platfrom from the stage

It’s really not that hard. Sheik can do it by simply short hopping underneath yoshis or stadium platforms

air dodging into the ground causes 10 frames of landing lag where this has 0 frames

wow 10 frames? but landing normal is only 3? wtf

Tmathh wavelanding onto platforms is usually for the purpose of quick neutral movement immediately on a platform, or for landing directly on a platform your full hop would overshoot, like ganondorf or falco

ooooh ok make sense the 10 frames is faster then the over shot and waitng for them to hit the ground makes sense

also wavelanding helps positioning a lot especially when trying to avoid fox or falco's U-air while in range to Waveland, and I'm not positive but I think the Waveland lag can be ledge-canceled to act out of, again I'm not positive but I think that's how it works

Why
